Calling all strawberry lovers! These brownies are for you. Enjoy alone, with ice cream, or even whipped cream! Made with Brothers All Natural freeze-dried strawberries!

Ingredients

1 bag Brothers All Natural Strawberry Fruit Crisps (1 oz. bags)

1/2 cup butter

1 heaping cup semi sweet chocolate chips

1 cup granulated sugar

3 large eggs

2/3 cup all purpose flour

2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa

1/2 tsp kosher salt

1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips (for the ganache)

3 oz cream (for the ganache)

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and spray an 8x8 pan with nonstick cooking spray. 

2. Using a small blender or food processor, grind the strawberries until they are almost powder-like. Set aside. 

3. In a medium microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and 1 cup of chocolate chips together, 30 seconds at a time until melted. Add in the sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until combined. 

4. Add in the freeze-dried strawberries, flour, cocoa, and salt. Mix until combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 28-30 minutes. Let cool. 

5. Add the remaining cup of chocolate chips to a heat-safe bowl. Heat the cream over the stovetop on low until the edges start to simmer. Do NOT bring to a boil! Pour the cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. When the brownies are cool, spread the ganache over. Chill for 10 minutes in the fridge and garnish with more freeze-dried strawberries. Enjoy!
